During the course of the audit, the following additional facts were determined:

1. An analysis of collections and losses on accounts receivable during the past two years indicates a drop in anticipated losses because of bad debts. After consultation with management, it was agreed that the loss experience rate on sales should be reduced from the recorded 2% to 1%, beginning with the year ended December 31, 2008.

2. An analysis of the available-for-sale securities revealed that this portfolio consisted entirely of short-term investments in marketable equity securities that were acquired in 2007. The total market valuation for these investments as of the end of each year was as follows: December 31, 2007—$81,000; December 31, 2008—$62,000.

3. The merchandise inventory at December 31, 2007 was overstated by $4,000 and the merchandise inventory at December 31, 2008 was overstated by $6,100.

4. On January 2, 2007, equipment costing $12,000 (estimated useful life of 10 years and residual value of $1,000) was incorrectly charged to Operating Expenses. Ingalls records depreciation via the straight-line method. In 2008, fully depreciated equipment (with no residual value) that originally cost $17,500 was sold as scrap for $2,500. Noble credited the proceeds of $2,500 to Property and Equipment.

5. An analysis of 2007 operating expenses revealed that Ingalls charged to expense a three-year insurance premium of $2,700 on January 15, 2007.

Required

1. Prepare the journal entries to correct the books at December 31, 2008. The books for 2008 have not been closed. Ignore income taxes.

2. Prepare a schedule showing the computation of corrected net income for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, assuming that any adjustments are to be reported on comparative statements for the two years. The first items on your schedule should be the net income for each year. Ignore income taxes. (Do not prepare financial statements.)
